It’s Okay, But

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My computer is a few years old, so it tends to heat up pretty quickly. I use my computer in bed, a lot and I hope this would do it’s thing and keep it cool. First thing, it is very comfortable, and feels nice sitting on my lap while using my computer. It is very loud though, louder than my computer when it heats up. Does it cool my computer down, it seems to, but the fans are so loud and going so hard that I don’t see it lasting long.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Actually Works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use a laptop at home and at work. I live in Sacramento where the weather gets pretty hot and is regularly over 100 degrees. At work I am in a shop exposed to the elements, so the laptop can get really hot. I also do video conferencing as well. At home, I play games on my laptop, which tends to really heat up my laptop.
The fan plugs into one of my regular USB ports and turns itself on automatically. To turn off, you just unplug it. The noise level of the fan is comparable with my laptop. When either fan is on, my measly speakers are hard to hear. When the chill mat is on, my laptop fan turns itself off after a short time of cooling. So it really works and I don't have to deal with all the noise of two fans. The area around my track pad is also pretty warm normally but with the chill mat, I don't have that issue. There is a significant temp difference, which has got to be good for the longevity of my laptop. The mat is super lightweight but I don't think would be durable for tons of travel in a back pack. The thickness/hieght of the mat under my laptop makes it about as tall as my laptops were by themselves in the old days when laptops weren't sleek like they are now. So I don't really notice any issues with typing and comfort due to the increased rise in height.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The chill mat does exactly what its name implies. ive used it extensively with working tasks especially desktop screen recording features and movie streaming that really heat up the computer if your not careful. i have a 2016 macbook pro and it fits flawlessly. the mat stays in 1 place and doesnt slide around, feels a little warpy but no damage noted since ive started using it. very great product!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this chili pad, duel fan, chili pad about a month ago and I like it. I like the fact that it has two fans instead of one. I also like the fact that it keeps my lap top from overheating. I recommend it for everyone with a lap top.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cool product...literally! This mat helps protect you or whatever else you use to sit your laptop on from the heat. The dual fans allow for a quicker cool down. It supports laptops up to 16" and has rubber pads to help your laptop from slipping. Overall, the product does what it's supposed to do and has some nice features that other chill mats, don't!

Keeps Things Cool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using my laptop chill mat for a while and it works great. It has a nice design and simple is easy to set up and use. This device can fit laptops up to 16" and also includes a USB cable and a user manual as well. This chill mat has dual fans that help keep my laptop cool. It's USB powered and works with both PC/Mac. The rubber grips on the bottom of the mat really help it stay in place. I love it.
